My U.S. Infrastructure and Employment Plan [View article]
A-@#($@*#-MEN!!!! Since we're going to have one regardless This is exactly the kind of WPA type program we need- first thing I would do though is replace all the transmission lines with composites which would yield an immediate 10-15% in available electrical supply previously lost to friction. China recognizes this and is deploying this material now.
I would also add rail upgrades as well - take more of the trucks off the road and reestablish train travel (bullet trains anyone?) as a major mode of transportation.
I'm still bothered by the batteries though, they just don't seem ready yet. But LNG, absolutely. We've got LOTS of it here.
I hope the Obama team reads this article. A lot of good ideas here.
